To the People of Iran- Our Love and Our Support

The Persian culture is one of the oldest, most sophisticated, and greatest cultures in our world. Going back to the coup against Prime Minister Mossadegh, the people of Iran have not been free. That has been exponentially worse since Ayatollah Khomeini’s 1979 Revolution. The Islamic Republic has repressed culture, aligned itself with Moscow, wrecked the economy, trampled human rights, and supported terrorism abroad. Khomeini and Khamenei now have harmed their people with their rule. It is long past time that they go.

Tonight in the streets of Iran, the people are rising up against repression. Americans should support them. I’m not talking boots on the ground- let them win the fight. But we should all support them. This is their 1776, in many ways.
